John Mamais, studio head at CD Projekt Red’s Krakow studio, has revealed some new tech details about Cyberpunk 2077. According to Mamais, Cyberpunk 2077 will feature an overhauled streaming system.
As Mamais told AusGamers:
“The streaming system had to be overhauled because, well, you’re moving a lot faster when you’re in a vehicle. So, we had to rework and rewrite how all that works. Also, there’s vertical streaming now. The Witcher is almost like a 2D game in comparison, its world was flat. [With Cyberpunk 2077] you’re going up and into huge buildings, so it is a case of vertical and horizontal streaming and hardware speeds impact that. We had to rewrite the tech to support all of that.”
Cyberpunk 2077 also promises to be a real show piece in terms of tech. As we know, the PC version will support real-time ray tracing effects. CD Projekt RED will be using RT to enhance the game’s emissive lights, ambient occlusion and the skyline.
“We started working on that about a year ago. It’s not something we started with because ray-tracing is also a recent thing within the industry. And we use ray-tracing for emissive lights to make adverts and the neon lighting you see look amazing. We also use ray-traced ambient occlusion and ray-tracing for the skyline.”
Cyberpunk 2077 will also have advanced shadow effects from long range shadows and contact shadows, to new Houdini physics simulations for particle effects, fluids, cloth, and more.
Mamais concluded that CD Projekt RED will always keep pushing the envelope on the way a game can look. He also claimed that Cyberpunk 2077 will be one last, big, exceptional looking title on this current generation of hardware.
Cyberpunk 2077 releases in April 2020!

Excellent, cant wait for this!
I’m going to miss you, Juan. 🙁
What a shame! you have already lost your new neuron….
Super hyped to see night time footage of the city. Hope it feels like Blade Runner.
Same here, big blade runner fan and i feel this game will satisfy that.
Yup , it was supposed to be a pc exclusive with the same graphics as the 2013 teaser , but now that it has to be multiplat with the consoles there wont be any air vehicles which also means no flying cars….they really shot themselves in the foot here.
Can’t read the quotes :/ please improve contrast!
PC:2008
Can your PC run crysis?
Console:2020
Can your console run cyberpunk 2077?
Console:2020 can run 4k or more than 30 FPS or raytracing
PC 2020 i can do all the at the same time
Hope I don’t die before june 2020, wich is (maybe) the month when this game will have its major bugs already fixed.
dont worry,it will be delayed.
It won’t, I’ve already speak with the guy in charge for this.

The game was downgraded. Look at the last video.
It wasn’t. It’s a lower resolution. Been confirmed.
I really want this to succeed, but I just got this itching that it’s not going to be as good as The Witcher 3. Maybe too ambitious.

Judging by the recent leaks, it doesn’t look good.
John Mamais, the very same John Mamais that was teh hea? of PR departme?? back in the 2014 Witcher 3 days, the one and only Mamais who promised this and that, so much stuff that the game didn’t have on launch.
I’d take anything that’s coming out of his mouth with a hug? tanker of salt.
“Mamais concluded that CD Projekt RED will always keep pushing the envelope of the way a game can look.” – Well until the envelope runs into console limitations that is. Not much envelope pushing if you ask me.
